Kansas City hip hop artist, Louis Rip, will be hosting the evening's festivities. This will be an extraordinarily-dope event than what we normally post up here. Mostly because KC legend DJ Just will be partaking on the turntables alongside DJ SKU, Brent Tactic and Jamel...

What do you get when you combine a live band with some of Kansas City's freestyle rap extraordinaires? Apparently, one of the most legendary improvised shows KC has ever seen. Don't listen to me though, I missed out...
